NEW! Beautifully Renovated Beachfront Cottage

Sopchoppy, FL, USA

House1100 sq. ft.

Bedrooms2

Half Baths0

Min Stay3 nights

This beachfront oasis rests on the private and secluded St. Teresa Beach. St. Teresa is three miles of sprawling sugar sand on one of Florida's 41 aquatic preserves. Named “The Forgotten Coast”—this is truly one of the few unspoiled remaining hidden gems of Florida's coast!

The beach and the Gulf are just steps out the door from this modern, coastal cottage which was completely renovated in 2017. The home features 2 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, an open concept living space and an outdoor shower.

As you enter the home you are greeted by a large gathering space with sweeping views of the water and beach. The kitchen features quartz counter tops, stainless steel appliances, and an island for guests to congregate. Ocean mist lower cabinets, boat cleat cabinet pulls, and ship lap walls give the room a coastal flair. Adjacent to the kitchen is the dining space with a large glass table that seats up to eight people and a large buffet for serving. The sitting area has a sleeper sofa as well as two accent chairs—a great place to gaze out onto the water and watch the world go by.

Next to the living space are two bedrooms each with their own en-suite bathroom. A third full size bath is adjacent to the kitchen as well. The guest room has 2 futons that makes into 2 full beds as well as a single bunk bed so this room offers sleeping for up to five guests. The master suite offers a king size bed and reading nook. The spacious master bath has two side by side sinks, a large shower, and direct access to the outdoor shower.

Please note that the owner may require a 4 night minimum stay during holidays.

We have stayed in the general area in the past. There is no comparison to any other when it comes to this house. It is well kept, clean and decorated. Maybe the outside reflects "Old Florida" but the inside is so updated. Scott has gone beyond in making this a very positive and great place to stay. Before leaving we received an email that had so much great information, where to stop to eat, shop and turn by turn on how to get to his house. Thank you Scott for making this a great mini getaway. Next time we intend on staying longer.

We live on a gulf in SW Florida and were a bit skeptical at first to spend Thanksgiving weekend on the same gulf. Glad to admit we were mistaken!

This was one of the best stays. The house is newly remodeled and the owner thought about every little detail. The views are unbelievable!

We had plans to explore the area...but once there we did not want to leave the house...

Scott was a little concerned about the gloomy weather, however for us it was perfectly fine...we were so happy to escape SW Florida heat.

Thank you for a wonderful stay! Looking forward to come back!

This place is a gem. First of all, this area of Florida is very unique. Not your typical Florida beach scene. Very serene, very few people, and a bit of a wildlife paradise. The hurricane spared most of the immediate area. I highly recommend St Teresa if you want to relax and have a quiet beach vacation. Scott's place is very well put together. Clean and new on the inside with plenty of room to feel comfortable. Just bring your food and fire up the grill, and you will feel like home.

Scott Olson has done a masterful job at creating a beach cottage that is beautifully decorated, with up-to-date-kitchen appliances, ample seating, and three full baths. But the one fact that is unmistakable is it's on the BEACH! Scott provided ample information about places to see and places to eat. His recommendations were exactly correct.
